Title
AP Background <= 3.8.2 - Cross-Site Request Forgery
Summary
The AP Background plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 3.8.2. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the advParallaxBackAdminSaveSlider function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to create or modify background sliders via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
Severity ?

Title
AP Background <= 3.8.2 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting
Summary
The AP Background plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'adv_parallax_back' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 3.8.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
Severity ?
6.4 (Medium)
CWE
- CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')
